The hotel rooms had a musty humid smell, but were clean and provided a beverage area with a fridge & microwave, spacious living room with an upholstered chair & couch with coffee table, and a big screen. The service was a mix of lazy and rude, but they were so attentive according to the Chicago Girls. The location was right in the midst of downtown with plenty of space and an ice machine in the corridor, making it a good idea. The dining experience was very good for both salty or sweet tastes. The hotel facilities were fabulous with a great pool and friendly staff.

I discovered that the hotel is located in a prime area with easy access to dining and shopping options. The rooms are a mix of dated and new, offering a variety of experiences. The service is comprehensive with some extra charge amenities available. On the downside, the dining experience could have been better and the lack of umbrellas was a minor inconvenience.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with impeccable cleanliness and a view of Panama City's busy city life. The service was extremely helpful and pleasant, although slightly less so at the bar.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room was very clean, well-appointed, and offered an incredible view of the sea and the pool, all for a really nice price. However, the room was neither deluxe nor suitable for a family.
